    Only Then May We Celebrate Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 14, 2023
     | 498 views

The first, which is way more popular than the other, is what is called “comparative” ...read more

    begin the new year by not comparing yourself to others

    It’s hard to believe. . . just last week we were observing Christmas, with feasting and presents and remembering the Christ Child. It was meant to be a time of celebration and joy.

    There are many things that Biblical loves pushes a person not to do. Biblical love sets boundaries.

    Ho w Worldly Love Compares to Biblical Love I Corinthians 13:4-7 The late Charles Schultz in his comic strip, “Peanuts” teaches a lot of common sense about life.

    God is incomparable with everything and anyone, and He cannot be likened to our images of Him. He is God we are not, therefore we need to bow everything in submission to Him, and instead of declaring healing or blessing, pray that His will be done.

    IF YOU COMPARE YOU CAN DECLARE Isaiah 40 Last week I shared about a gospel that is being taught and it is spreading like wildfire in Asia, Africa, Latin America and my country. It is a gospel that looks attractive on the outside, but on the inside it is a deadly poison. There are many names for ...read more

    We declare in faith, "He is Risen." Jesus is alive. Right now. He rose from the dead two thousand years ago. And his disciples were shocked to see him alive. Yet he had promised he would rise again.

    Answer Ten: Don't Judge Or Compare Ministers Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 21, 2015
     | 4,828 views

    Some in the Corinthian church were judging the gifts of believers and preachers. This answer takes off from Paul’s ninth answer about letting God be the judge of ministers.

    Some in the Corinthian church had made the mistake of judging, boasting, and priding themselves in their superior gifts and achievements. They were judging the gifts of believers and preachers. They were usurping the authority of God alone to gift and to judge men. In reality, they were nothing ...read more

    See how clearly defined is the difference in character, purpose and teaching of these two men (one of whom is also God).

    16. Opposition Both Muhammad and Jesus were at first tolerated then opposed severely by those who desired the status quo. Such will it ever be when new ideas come to a community.
